MILLER: New Jersey bill is outright gun ban on .22-caliber rifles and leads to confiscation
(Washington Times) – New Jersey has become ground zero this year for legislative battles over gun control.
The Brady Campaign ranked the state third in the nation for most restrictive firearms laws, yet anti-gun Democrats who control the legislature are determined to go all the way to gun bans and confiscation.
Since the legislation covers both detachable and fixed magazines, it has the effect of to banning popular, low-caliber rifles.
New Jersey Democrats want to ban your Nylon 66 .22 rifle and send you to jail.
The Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs gave the draft legislation to top firearms experts in the country to determine what guns would fall under the expanded ban.
They discovered that the bill would affect tube-fed, semi-automatic rifles because the magazine cannot be separated from the gun.
Thus, the experts found that at least 43 common rifles would suddenly be considered a prohibited “assault firearm,” such as the .22 caliber Marlin Model 60, Remington Nylon 66 and Winchester 190.
